NOTD: Star of Bethlehem Water Marble + Tutorial

So I did marble on top of China Glaze Cheers to You, although I wasn't able to use that color in the marble ... it just wasn't flowing smoothly in the water for the design I was trying to do. The blue is China Glaze Little Drummer boy, and since CtY wasn't working, I grabbed China Glaze Swing Baby - it is kind of metallic taupe in the bottle, but in the water & on the nail, especially over my existing mani, it goes much more silver. I'd like to wear it alone sometime. You can interpret this design in several ways, but to go with the holiday I'm sticking with the Star of Bethlehem:

WOW this does not look like a marbling! the shape is perfectly repeated on each nail and the lines are so sharp, it looks like you sat there and painstakingly taped it out. what an interesting concept, thanks for sharing your secrets!!

I love blog and all of your tutorials! I am writing to give you a heads up on a deal I foundon polish at my local Dollar Tree...it's Maybelline duo polishes..I got one that has the colors Charm cherry(which is a shimmery red) and Zip fly(which is a glittery midnight blue..sorta like dark denims)both are very pretty! Keep the tutorials coming and I'll keep watching!Merry Christmas to you!
